Cuddle And Stargaze With Your Main Squeeze At This Charlestown Sky Theatre

Twinkle Lights Are Great, But Have You Ever Been Stargazing?

For only $10 — it’s a suggested donation of $5 per person for the required tickets, you can always give more, though —  a super affordable and memorable date could be yours.

Yes, I’m talking about Stargazing Nights at Frosty Drew Observatory, happening on Friday evenings (provided the weather cooperates and it’s dry and clear) in Ninigret Park in Charlestown.

You probably won't have to wait hours in line to gain access into the actual Observatory, as people do during the summer months, another reason to go this season.

Also: You should definitely bundle up because the roof will be open.

It's a tiny but impactful space in terms of what you'll see via the ginormous Newtonian (telescope) and learn from a knowledgeable crew of astronomers, all under what are considered to be the darkest skies in Rhode Island.

Prepare to be wowed by (and start geeking out over) the Moon and stars, possibly some shooting stars, galaxy sightings, and a whole lot more.

The cosmos related magic ✨ happens every Friday nite starting at 7:30pm.

So, forget the phone photos, using a prof cam with a flash (which is actually prohibited), and just ENJOY.

 Frosty Drew Observatory & Sky Theatre is located at 61 Park Lane, Ninigret Park, Charlestown, RI.
